For (γὰρ)

Explanatory. Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet, that is to say, nothing is excepted.

That is not put under him (αὐτῷ ἀνυπότακτον)

Lit. “unsubjected to him.” The adjective only here and 1Ti 1:9; Tit 1:6. But this ideal is not yet a reality. We see not yet all things subjected to him, but we do see the germinal fulfillment of the prophecy in Jesus' life, suffering, and death.
